"He's going into cardiac arrest!" The nurse screamed as the two holding onto a crying Blair pulled her to the door, but she resisted. His heart monitor suddenly went flat lined as the doctor and nurses rushed to keep him alive. But before Blair's world went dark she heard herself scream but to her it sounded miles away.
"NO,CHUCK!"
"Here you go Miss, your brand new baby boy." A nurse said sweetly as she gently handed a small blue bundle into a tired and sweaty Blair's arms. Blair smiled at the nurse than turned to look down at her baby. But when she glanced down she was greeted with a head of very curly dark brown hair. Highly confused as to why her baby had curly hair she quickly looked at the nurse in disgust because clearly this was not her baby. This baby looked more like a Jonas and not a Bass.
"Excuse me but this is not my baby!" Blair spat as she tried to hand the baby back to a very shocked looking nurse.
"No B this is yours, I think he looks just like Mike, don't you think so?" Serena interrupted as she smiled at Blair's side dressed in ugly medical scrubs.
"What? Who the hell is Mike?" Blair screamed as she watched the nurse leave and Serena sit next to her on the bed.
"Blair honey you know Mike, Mike the guy that you met at Columbia last year. You guys have dated ever since and now that you have graduated you guys decided to try for a baby." Serena squealed as Blair looked on in utter disbelief. Who the fuck in Mike? When did she get into Columbia? Why in the world would she have a baby with someone other then Chuck, and what happened in the last few years?
Suddenly a man that looked like a complete pot head/ Brooklyn hobo came stumbling into the room. He had long curly brown hair like the baby and to Blair's horror a beard that looked as if it still had last weeks dinner stuck in it. Tears streamed down Blair's face as she looked between Serena and the baby.
"Hey, sorry I'm late my dealer was bein a dewsh-bag so I was like fukket, so iz dat my boy?" Blair's eyes went wide at his Jersey accent and the fact that she got the pot head thing right. Blair started sobbing as the baby started crying along with her.
"Serena were is Ch...Chuck?" Blair choked staring at her smiling friend.
"Blair Chuck died three years ago, whats the matter with you?" Serena said confused at how her friend was acting.
"No...no S...I was in Prague and I was...I was preg..."Blair tried her hardest to remember.
"No B...Chucks dead and what you thought was a baby was really a bad case of food poisoning and gas." Serena tried to reassure her friend of the information she was giving her. Blair's crying kicked up a notch as the baby screamed louder.
"No...no this cant be happening, not to me...Chuck...CHUCK!"
"CHUCK!" Blair screamed as she shot up, quickly scanning the room to find Serena standing at the end of the hospital bed she was laying on. She glanced down to find herself on that crinkly paper that doctors have you sit on,in her clothes and missing her broken shoes she had left in Chucks room. Chuck, was he okay...?
"Serena oh thank god, Is Chuck alright...please tell me he is fine...please." Blair started sobbing as the thought of earlier came rushing back to her.
"Blair you have to calm down, Chuck is fine they were able to revive him and he is now in stable condition. But are you ok Blair? I was able to convince the nurses that you were okay after they took you vitals." Serena's word brought relief to Blair, Chuck was fine thats all she wanted to know. Blair slipped off the bed and walked over to her friend. Absentmindedly she reached up and clutched the scarf in reassurance.
"Can I just go back and see him now?" Blair asked as Serena blocked her way out. Blair frowned as her attempts failed as the blond blocked the doorway.
"B...you need to take this." Serena said as she handed Blair a box out of the paper bag Blair had failed to noticed in Serena's hand earlier. Blair took the box gingerly knowing that this was coming, she just didn't want it to be like this.
"Serena I can't, not with Chuck being practically on his death bed. I couldn't bare it if something happened to him...I wouldn't survive." Blair choked up tears as Serena pulled her friend in for a hug that was long over due.
"Shh...I'm going to be right here, the doctor even said that he was doing better even with the scare that we just had." Serena tried to sooth Blair, rubbing her back and whispering good things to her. Blair backed up from the blonds embrace and tried to put on a smile.
"Alright lets get this over with so I can get back to Chuck." Blair sighed as Serena led her into the small bathroom.
Five minuets later both girls sat on the edge of the bathtub that was in the room, patiently awaiting the results.
"Whatever happens Blair, just know that I'm always here for you." Serena stated wholeheartedly as the timer went off on her phone indicating time was up. Blair sighed nodding her head as she got up to check the test.
"Remember B...two lines if positive, and one line if its negative." Serena spoke up as Blair reached for the little white stick. Taking in a deep breath Blair slowly glanced down at the test in her hand. This was without a question the moment Blair would someday look back on and truthfully say was the most wonderful and frightening day in her life.
Plain as day were two pink lines and as soon as the feeling set in both girls started to cry. Blair hugged her best friend tightly as both girls laughed and cried until no tears were left.
"You know the last time this happened we were doing the same thing, but now I'm not relived that I'm not...I'm actually so happy right now that I am but also scared." Blair said looking back down at the test remembering the day back in high school clearly. She wasn't angry, she was overjoyed with the thought of having something so little of Chuck's right under her own skin. She now had something to hold onto as her hope died each second his eyes didn't open.
"Come on B lets go see how Chucks doing." Serena silently led her down the hall to Chuck's room and let her go in first. He was still hooked up to all the machines and the ventilator and to her relief his heart was going strong. The door closed as Blair and Serena walked over to Chucks bed and sat down in the two chairs next to him on either side. Blair and Serena both took one of his hands in theirs. It was now about eight o'clock at night and Lily had gone off to make some phone calls and pick up dinner for the girls some time around when Blair was asleep. Serena had told Lily about her suspicions, to her surprise Lily actually looked happy when Serena had told her and advised her daughter to go pick up a test for Blair.
"How am I going to tell him Serena?" Blair asked never taking her eyes off his face. Serena reached over for Blair's free hand and placed hers on top trying to calm her best friend the best she could.
"B...If Chuck wakes up..."
"When he wakes up!" Blair interrupted Serena when she accidentally said 'if'. Blair wanted no negativity around Chuck's sleeping form who was inches away from the girls.
"Sorry...When Chuck wakes up you may need to wait until he can talk clearly before giving him the big news." Serena suggested patting Blair's free hand.
"But if you want I'll tell him with you." Serena smiled sadly as she saw a single tear roll down Blair's cheek. But Blair shook her head no. She wanted to tell him by herself she just didn't know how to go about the act. Blair's lip quivered before she pushed her face into Chuck's leg scratching her face on the blanket. Serena let go of Blair's hand than sat back in the chair staring at her two friends with sadness on her face. Blair sobbed as Serena looked on wishing Chuck would just wake up before something happens to Blair because right now Serena was sure her heart was in a million pieces.
"Serena, honey can you come here for a second?" Lily asked in a whisper as she poked her head through the door. Serena quickly stood up then made her way to her mother, closing the door behind her.
"Did you give her the test?" Lily asked, she had a certain twinkle in her eye like she was actually existed for the results.
"Yes...she's pregnant." Serena whispered as Lily's eyes widened as her mouth curved into a smile. Lily was happy for Blair but scared for the safety of the baby and Blair's sanity.
"Well I hope for her sanity that Chuck wakes up soon." Serena said as she turned to look at Blair through the little widow on the door. She still had her face pushed into Chuck's leg.
"All we can do now is hope and pray, Serena." Lily responded taking her daughters had as the two blonds walked silently down the quiet hallway leaving Blair for some alone time with Chuck.
Blair sniffled as she listened to the ventilator pump air into Chucks lungs. She frowned at his appearance when she finally lifted her head off his leg. He was still pale, his hair was a mess and now noticeably greasy and his lips were chapped to hell, and all she could think about was kissing those lips.
"I love you, Chuck." Blair whispered into his ear as she stroked his cheek, her tears seamed endless at this point.
"I need you to wake up Chuck...I need you to help raise this baby...our baby needs a father Chuck." Blair choked at the thought of "their" baby. It downed on her that this baby was sorta a miracle in a special way. When Blair now pictured her life as the movie inside her head, she saw the baby crystal clear. He would look just like Chuck, dark messy brown hair, strong jaw line, beautiful hypnotizing eyes, same devilish smirk and little bow ties and scarves to go with every outfit. She knew Chuck would make a wonderful father, he would never be like Bart or her own father. Chuck would never shun this child away or leave her alone to run off with some gay model. Chuck would deserve the #1 Dad mug that the kid would make for him, he would put all the hand made cards and drawings up in his office and not just shove them in a drawer like Bart had done. Blair only knew that because when Chuck had finally asked her to help clean out Bart's desk she had found them crumpled and destroyed in the back of the bottom drawer when Chuck was out of the room. She had put them in a box and took them with her without his knowledge. She knew for sure Chuck could never be Bart. He would be front row with a video camera to every piano recital, soccer game (which Nate would surely be coaching) and school play their son ever had. She had no doubt in her mind Chuck would love the baby as much as he loved her...maybe even more.
"Please Chuck...please wake up." Blair begged as her grip on his hand tightened and more angry tears sprang from her eyes and landed on the itchy sheets.
"Please Chuck...I need you, the baby needs you...I...I can't do this by myself Chuck." Blair sobbed before crying hard into his leg again. Serena and Lily were right, If Chuck never woke up Blair would never survive and right now Blair's heart was dangling by its last tread.
"Please...Chuck...I love you so much...I'm sorry for everything...please Chuck." Blair's cries were muffled by the blanket as she held onto his hand for dear life. Sobs reeked havoc on her body as they shook through her tiny frame.
"We're inevitable, Waldorf."
"Was your first time with someone you love?" … "Yes It was."
"Are you sure?"
"But I am me. And you are you. We're Chuck and Blair. Blair and Chuck. The worst thing you've ever done—the darkest thought you've ever had—I will stand by you through anything."
"I'm Chuck Bass! No one cares."... "I do!"
"I know you better then I know myself."
"I wan''t to believe you, but I can't. You hurt me too many times."
"You can believe me this time."
"Oh. That's it?"
"I love you too."
"Cause I love you, you enormously stubborn pain it the ass."
"Love me?"... "Always."
"That's okay...I have you."
Thats when it happened as Blair cried into Chuck's leg all her desperate prayers were answered. The hand Blair was holding suddenly lightly squeezed hers. Blair's head sprang up and looked up at Chuck's face to see his eye start to flutter.
"Chuck!...Oh Chuck can you hear me? Open your eyes for me Chuck...please." Blair practically jumped out of her seat as his eyes soon slowly opened as his hand squeezed hers harder then before. His eyes bored into hers as tears sprang up from both their eyes. Blair was in complete shock she could barely find the words to express herself in that moment of pure bliss that washed over her. But she managed to squeak out the only thing that came to her mind.
"Oh Chuck."
